I would suggest around 4k to 5k but that is just me you can do a few test in those ranges and see what works the best for you.

i launch at 6,000 rpms with either drag radials or slicks but i don;t have a V6. i have the 4cly BP i never had wheel hop unless i launched on street tires.

if i launch below 4000 rpms the car just bog down probly cause its boosted vs N/A.

Damn you guys are lucky...i cant launch higher than 1500 RPM and slipping it on street tire...even with my LSD i think 2,500 RPM slipping it was the best i can do.

Now that i am turbo i can't do any launching on street tire, let alone any flooring in 2nd..haha

launch at around 2000, slip it out kinda fast then floor it, as long as you good some pretty good tires likei had youw ont spin much, it will just fly out of hte hole
